3 Research question and paper motivation DOES SOCIAL PERFORMANCE REALLY LEAD TO FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE? ACCOUNTING FOR ENDOGENEITY The investigation of the relationship between the firm and its stakeholders can be done following a: Normative approach Evan & Freeman, 1983; Freeman, 1984, 1994; Goodpaster, 1991; Clarkson, 1994; Donaldson & Preston, 1995; Argandoña, 1998; Donaldson & Dunfee, 1999 Philips, Instrumental approach Freeman, 1984; Hill & Jones, 1992; Jones, 1995; Jones and Wicks, 1999 It is taken to be a practical necessity that stakeholder theory revolve around financial consequences substantive enough to convince managers that stakeholders are worthy of attention (Margolis and Walsh, 2003).
4 Research question and paper motivation Recent extensive reviews of the SP-FP empirical literature Margolis and Walsh [127] (2003); Orlitzky et al. [52] (2003); Roman et al. [51] (1999); Griffin and Mahon [62] (1997); Pava and Krausz [21] (1996). Margolis & Walsh (2003) identify 127 empirical studies since 1972 on SP-FP. 109 studies with SP as independent variable: 54 (+) 20 (mixed results) 28 non significant Only 7 (-) - Overall, the evidence concludes there is a positive relationship (+) - Different measures of SP: - Rating agencies (KLD, SAM, GMI, AccountAbility) - Reputation indices (fortune reputation, Reputation institute) - Pollution indices (e.g., CEP --Council of economic priorities) - Annual reports analysis (content analysis techniques) - ad-hoc indices, questionnaires, etc. - KLD is one of the most often used indexes in the literature (>10 studies).
5 Research question and paper motivation Overall, the evidence concludes there is a positive relationship, but If the SP-FP relationship is +, then: what is it adding a stakeholder view of the firm? The instrumentalization of stakeholder theory challenges the normative and ethical foundations of stakeholder arguments. Managers do not justify their social actions because they are right or consistent with principles but because they are profitable according to the empirical findings Moreover, the positive link contradicts the common observation that firms are often at odds with their stakeholders
6 Methodological Issues. Endogeneity Possible explanations for the empirical findings: (other than Business and Society sponsors) 1. Measurement problems with SP 2. Distinction between short- and long run 3. Incomplete measurement of FP and total value creation (Lieberman et al., 2006) 4. Reverse causality (e.g., slack resources hypothesis) 5. Self-selection (endogeneity) of strategic choice Previous research in strategic management and finance has shown the importance of correcting for endogeneity (Hamilton & Nickerson, 2003; Campa & Kedia, 2002; Villalonga, 2002). The empirical results may change. The adoption of CSR policies may be correlated with an unobservable firm specific attribute (quality of management, top management values,). E(π 0 SP 0 ) E(π 0 SP 1 ) and, E(π 1 SP 1 ) E(π 1 SP 0 )
7 Methodological Issues. Endogeneity Previous research estimates: π it = γsp it + X it β + ε i But if the cov (SP i, ε 1i ) 0 then, unobserved factors affect both the strategic choice of SP and performance simultaneously OLS cross-sectional estimation produces a biased estimate of the effect of SP on FP Panel data: panel data fixed effects estimation can control for firm-specific unobservable attributes π it = γsp it + X it β +θ i + ζ it ε = θ i +ζ it A panel allows us to estimate: (unobs. constant) π it -π it-1 = γ(sp it -SP it-1 ) + (X it -X it-1 )β + (ζ it -ζ it-1 ) Instrumental variables: SP= f (activist s pressure, visibility, sector, governance) (unobs. is variable). SP it =βz it + µ it
8 Methodological Issues. Endogeneity A note on Hausman test First, we need to test if endogeneity in our sample is a problem or not Hausman test does not work in many situations! Standardizing the X s could help Alternative: Mundlak test π it = γ 1 SP it + γ 2 SP i + X it β + ε i

20 Contribution and managerial implications Contributions Findings The positive significant impact of SP on FP disappears once endogeneity is properly taken into account There are unobserved variables correlated with both SP and FP that mediate the SP-FP relationship Quality of management? (non measurable but observable?) Managerial Implications 11 Managers should not assume that investing in SP will lead to higher FP In the absence of instrumental reasons for adopting social policies they need to find normative rationales Distinction between short run (-) and long run (+)
